1. Canticum Lunae
Luna sum aeternum sidus
Conspectus est placidus
Ab origine vitae adsum
Et fini superero
Sed progressus mundi
Est incertus
In silentio noctis
Vos homines observo
Beati vero raro video
Sed odium sentio
Inimicitiae video
Contumelias audio
Avaritiam sentio
Simulatio video
Sed lacrimas specto
Sed timorem sentio
De causam quaereo
2. Hi Versus
Hi versus illis solum dedicati sunt,
Qui per tenebras errant,
Quamquam sol lucet,
Quibus nox in diem mutatur
Et dies in noctem
Hi versus illis solum dedicati sunt,
Quorum non solum corpora
Fame laborant,
Sed etiam animi vexatur,
Et qui contra vanitatem interiorem pugnant
Hi versus illis solum dedicati sunt,
Qui mundum suum
In somniis fingunt,
Mundum securitatis puerilis,
Qui veritate facillime deleri potest.
Hi versus illis solum dedicati sunt,
Qui ordinem rerum quaerunt
3. Flores Gelidi
Flores gelidi
Crescunt in fenestra mea
Frigus pinxit eos
Flammam candelae specto
Amicus meus est calor
Proximus mihi est
Qui calorem mihi donat
Qui corpus meum amat.
In nive vero
Figuras pronas video
Flores temptant carpere
Sed manus iam sunt rigidae
Adiuvate illos in frigore migrantes
Etiamsi auxilium vestrum fugiunt
Nam fortasse frigore
Iam perituri sunt...
4. From Dreamworld To Sunrise
Another night is over
In which I couldn't find any sleep
A night of melancholic reflection
The grey moon is suffocating
In my thoughts
And drowning in my tears.
Full of majesty
Full of glory
The sun is striding across the sky
Full of harmony
Full of confidence
It seems to take my sorrows away.
When the sun flees
The approaching night
Then also disappear my concrete schemes
And how the sun descents
Depriving people of their light
I sink again into my world of dreams
5. Impressions Of Winter
Missing warmth of calming tones
Infatuation melodies
The summer used to sing at me
They sleep in temporary past
Signs of transistority
Now I become aware of me
From afar I watch myself
Because I fear proximity
The light of tepid summer nights
Disappeared so long ago
To steep a mental landscape
Into glassy and sterile romance
Perfect crystals do reflect
Rays wherever they may come from
Concerned for beauty
They don't make any disparity
Is my winter never-ending
Glittering mendacity
Now drop your false pretense
Or is it reality
Motionless I stay behind
Observing worlds at passing by
Grotesque smile on thousand faces
Friendly people all so kind
But do they really smile at me
Or is it my naivete?
Which swallows laughter
And produces nice distorted miens
Blinded by white purity
My view obstructed and impaired
Although the whole world is emblazed
I love the darker light in me
Can't you see the whiter pureness?
Silhouettes of new romance.
Tender flakes protect the dying flowers.
Wide intentions over wider plains,
Illuminated by children's laughter.
Bliss, wherever you look, is sincere.
To stainless flowers solidifies the water.
The distant canopy of heaven seems so near...
6. Ignis Ardet In Pluvia
Ignis ardet in pluvia.
Tender glow
Reflected by water
Upholding the spirit of life
Resisting insensible monotony
Maintaining the combat which keeps
Me still alive in the youth of my days
The seed of my striving
Evoking in lively passion
7. Triviality
Moments of parting
Reopening old sores again bleeding
Moments of parting
Premature descents inside
Grieving why not triviality?
Moments of parting
Wiping out parts of mine
Fading into triviality
Moments of parting
Rescues from captivity
Dissolving it is triviality
8. My Father's Return
Floods once comforting
Now rooted up by force
Are discharging into emptiness
Without defence
As my divorce
Glittering snowfall
A covering mantle
Over self-destroying memories
My father's return
It is so gentle
9. Elegy Of A Swan
Clangam ploratione una alitis cygni,
Qui transfretavit in aequora.
Infelix sum avicula,
Heu mihi, quid agam misera?
Pennis soluta inniti
Lucida non potero hic in stilla.
Undis quatior,
Procellis hinc inde nunc allidor exsulata.
Angor inter arta gurgitum cacumina,
Gemens alatizo intuens mortifera
Non conscendens supera.
Ortus, occasus plagae poli,
Administrate lucida sidera.
Clangam ploratione una alitis cygni,
Qui transfretavit in aequora.
Infelix sum avicula,
Heu mihi, quid agam misera?
10. Foreboding
Fly, my bird, and disappear,
Through waving depths,
In shades of grey
Beneath, the graves of yesterday
With words unread
And names forgotten
The flowers bend their leaden heads
To gain a kiss from mother earth
And lay themselves to rest
Sleeping
No sun will ever burn this ground
This holy scenery
Forebodings of our days to come
Forebodings of our days to come
